1966 Map of Gainesville West

USGS Topo · Published 1967

About this map

Gainesville expands westward during the mid-1960s, showing a suburban landscape defined by new residential developments like Suburban Heights and Beville Heights. This transition from rural Alachua County is evident as residential tracts meet active agricultural research areas, such as the University of Florida Agricultural Experimental Station and the University of Florida Experimental Farm. The northern reaches remain largely undeveloped, dominated by the wetlands of Sanchez Prairie and the unique geological sinkhole at Devils Mill Hopper.
